Rush - How It Is: chords

G
Here's a little trap
      F         G             F
That sometimes catches everyone
G                       F      G F
When today's as far as we can see
G                        F
Faith in bright tomorrows
        G                F
Giving way to resignation

Chorus:
D             G
That's how it is
D         G
How it's going to be
D             G
It's such a cloudy day
Em                 A
Seems we'll never see the sun
D           G            Em    A
I feel the day has possibilities
D              G
Frozen in the moment
    Em        A
The lack of imagination
D              G             Em
Between how it is and how it ought to be
D              G             Em         A
Between how it is and how it ought to be

Here's a little trap
That sometimes trips up everyone
When we tire of our own company
Sometimes we're the last to see
beyond the day's frustrations

Chorus:
That's how it is
How it's going to be
It's such a cloudy day
Seems we'll never see the sun
Or feel the days of uncertainty
Burning in the moment
Trapped by the desperation
Between how it is and how it ought to be
Between how it is and how it ought to be

D
Foot upon the stair
Shoulder to the wheel
You can't tell yourself not to care
                G               Em
You can't tell yourself how to feel
D             G E A
That's how it is

Chorus:
Another cloudy day
Seems we'll never see the sun
Or feel the day has possibilities
Frozen in the moment
The lack of imagination
Between how it is and how it ought to be
Between how it is and how it ought to be
